South Walton is well known for its beaches and coastal dune lakes; however, salt water isn’t the only liquid we’re good for. Scenic 30-A is also home to an extremely creative slough of mixologists. Here is a list of 12 of our favorites:

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof Martini, Fish Out of Water. A favorite of loyal patrons, this martini combines Cat-Head honeysuckle vodka, lemon, jalapeno, and mint.

The Local Catch, Local Catch Bar & Grill. This favored local hangout has come up with a short-and-sweet, soul-sipping take on the Arnold Palmer: a shake-up of Jeremiah Weed Sweet Tea vodka and lemonade with a sugar rim.

Seaside Punch, Bud & Alley’s. This smooth blend of Stoli vodka, apple, peach and black raspberry puree, pineapple juice and house-made sour mix is a perfect beach-side thirst-quencher.
